I had visited Bangkok before and wanted to explore more—and this tour absolutely delivered! It was such a pleasant experience, offering a glimpse of a quieter, greener side of Bangkok. I joined the morning tour, which turned out to be a good choice that day, since the sunniest stretch is at the beginning. Cycling around the island was really nice, I think it's the best way to discover this area. I fully recommend this tour and our guide, Best, who set the perfect pace throughout the tour, gave us some great tips and shared interesting insights on life in Bangkok and across Thailand.

Biking in the countryside

Jonah_T, Nov 2024
Did the morning tour with Oliver as our guide. We were lucky to be able to do it on the Buddhist holiday so there was lots going on at the temples.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Dear Jonah, Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the morning tour with Oliver and that you got to experience the vibrant atmosphere of the Buddhist holiday. Visiting the temples on such a special day must have made the experience even more unique and memorable! We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to see you again for another adventure. Best regards,

Explore a greener side of Bangkok

Patricia_N, Feb 2024
Fun morning exploring another side of Bangkok. Had a private tour to get off the beaten path. My only suggestion is to offer flat handle bikes. The sit upright, Dutch style cruiser was very hard to control for one who is used to a "traditional" bike.

Great bike ride in the green countryside of Bangkok

Samo_S, Oct 2023
Great bike ride in the green countryside of Bangkok - very pleasant and relaxing experience with a friendly guide!

Brilliant and outstanding

Andrew_F, Mar 2023
What a fantastic experience. Very relaxed riding and nothing too strenuous and you will see parts of Bangkok that you would never see normally. One of the most memorable holiday experiences you will ever have. Mikan was amazing and very caring and ensured that we was thoroughly looked after.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Thank you for your valuable feedback Andrew. Very happy to hear that it is one of your most memorable holiday experiences.

Colours of Bangkok-don't miss it

jane_p, Jan 2023
Had the most amazing insight into another side of Bangkok, with a very knowledgable guide Oliver and Fearn(?) who also was our own personal photographer! Not overly exertion at all so suitable for all abilities, and we stopped for a light lunch too (all included). Great experience and couldn’t recommend it enough! Fun team in the office too, thanks for a super morning.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Dear Jane, Thanks so much for your wonderful review. We're always happy to read our guests enjoyed the ride and the professionalism of our guides. We wish you a great time and stay in Thailand and looking forward to have you on one of our tours in the near future. Kind regards, Andre

Excellent safety conscious trip!

LiamSpencer, Dec 2022
Highlights: excellent local knowledge. Vegan / vegetarian friendly. Safety conscious. Friendly. We had a really great time on this tour. Our guide Bee was excellent at guiding us around the maze of streets and paths. He was very conscious of our safety and really wanted to help us understand the culture of the area and of Bangkok. I've been to Bangkok before (and on tours) and learnt many new things - which as a teacher I really appreciated! The meal was lovely in the local restaurant. As two (plant based vegetarians) Bee made sure we were able to order a dish that was suitable to our needs and communicated with the kitchen. He even helped us with our taxi on the way home. Would definitely book again with them!

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Dear Liam, Thanks for your wonderful review. We're always happy when our guests enjoyed the ride and appreciated the professionalism of our guides. We wish you a great time in the land of smiles and looking forward to have you back on our tour in the near future. Kind regards, Andre

A great insight into Bangkok

Kate_S, Jun 2022
A great insight into lots of aspects of Bangkok - local communities, temples, boxing and a beautiful green park. Lunch was delicious (I had a vegan Pad Thai with tofu) and we were constantly offered drinks for refreshment. I would definitely recommend this tour, but just beware some paths were very narrow so you have to be a decent cyclist to keep on track!

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Dear Kate, Thanks so much for your wonderful review :-) Hope you had a great time in Thailand and looking forward to have you back on one of our other bicycle mini adventures.

Different side of Bangkok

Linda_K, May 2022
It was nice to get away from the city. The tour guide, V., was great. The path was pretty narrow with a lot of turns so you need to have good bike handling skills. Would not recommend for anyone under 16. We stopped for a meal in the beginning of the tour so don't eat before. The local restaurant had really good food. Bring water so you don't get dehydrated.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Dear Linda, Thanks so much for your great review. We're always happy to read our guests have enjoyed the ride and appreciated the professionalism of our guides. We're looking forward to welcome you again on one of our tours in the near future. kind regards, Andre

Bangkok Biking

klstone2004, Feb 2020
The bike tour was fun and we got to see a quiet part of the city. We got to see some back streets and got to ride a long-tail boat across the river.

Colors of Bangkok bike tour

Sandra_E, Feb 2020
Guide was great Riding bikes on busy Bangkok streets a little dangerous Path through jungle narrow and one person on tour crashed Enjoyed crossing the river and riding around the island Lunch was a little small considering activity level Guide was very good

Really Good

DavidandCher2014, Oct 2019
This was a great afternoon. The ride was fun and interesting. Going so close to peoples back or front yard was an eye opener. The guide, Jannie , was excellent in guiding us through the very narrow back lane ways and traffic. The River crossing was fun. The locals you meet on the ride are friendly and open especially the kids who are only too happy to give a " Hi Five " and laugh if you fall or stumble off your bike.The meal provided was great and most enjoyable and provided a chance to chat to the guide on a person to person basis. The only down fall was ME. With the humidity and previous health problems I was not able to complete the full round and as there were only my wife and I on this tour the guide was able to get us back to the start point with not too much of a problem. Ha'ts off to her . If you are thinking of doing this tour PLEASE make sure you can make it. If you are young or fit elder then go for it. You will enjoy it,. SUGGESTION for tour operator, please consider getting some E bikes. This will open up the tour to more people who would be happy to pay extra for the experience also hotel transfers. The more people you can get to see the non commercialised side of Bangkok the better it is for tourists and more importantly the local people. I would highly recommend this tour.

Response from Host, Nov 2019

Dear David, Thank you for your feedback. We glad to hear that Jannie provided a good service. Also glad to hear that we are a part of your new experiences in Bangkok. We hope to see you again on one of our bicycle excursions in Ayutthaya and Chaing Mai. Kind regards, Ammarin Sukkasame

A really enjoyable afternoon. Excellent guide, very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. Saw many sites that we would never have seen on our own. A wonderful contrast to the hustle and bustle of central Bangkok.

Response from Host, Jun 2019

Dear Angela, Please accept our sincere apologies for the late reply. Thank you for the kind review you wrote about our tour. We glad you enjoyed the tour also glad to read that our guide provided a good service. Hope to have you back one day on one of our other bicycle-excursions in Ayutthaya or Chiang Mai. Kind regards,

An ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT tour, so interesting and varied day out on an easy bike ride. Our guide Ron was just amazing, he never stopped smiling!

kari, Jan 2018
This was an amazing way to see some hidden gems of Bangkok in a close up,intimate way. Nisha, our guide, was knowledgeable and courteous and a lot of fun to spend the afternoon with. The tour included visits to inner city community, local kindergarten, small garment factory community as well as the jungle paths of Sri Nakom Khaunkhan Park. Bikes were in excellent shape and it was a lot of fun to cross the river with the bikes in a small boat.

Amazing 4 hours where we cycled...

gaynorsoftley, Dec 2017
Amazing 4 hours where we cycled through so many different areas, went on a longtail boat twice across the river, fed some fish, watched so many families enjoying themselves away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. Nischa our guide made our trip perfect - amazing tour guide. Would do again

Good value for your money. Our tour...

Jason C, Nov 2017
Good value for your money. Our tour guides name was Best. He has a very good positive attitude and spoke good English. It was a comfortable bike through through the city, shuttle boat across the river, and a unique bike ride in the jungle area of Bangcock. Best offered good explanations of the sites and answered questions. We went to feed the fish and saw a lot of the country side of Bangcock. The roads are fairly narrow during parts of the trip so i would recommend you are somewhat comfortable riding a bike prior to this activity. The local lunch place best took us to had delicious food!

Very conscientious and professional...

KimberlyDelosi_S, Sep 2016
Very conscientious and professional tour company checked up on several who were missing and/or late without compromising the tour for others, very accommodating to clients. The tour itself is as described, highly recommended, and led by people who obviously love Bangkok and love what they do. Many thanks.

Das "grüne" Bangkok - ein Erlebnis

HeikeVeyel_A, Sep 2023
Ich hatte einen wirklich herrlichen Vormittag! Die Radtour war hervorragend organisiert und es war eine tolle Sache, Bangkoks "grüne Seite" kennenzulernen. Unser Guide Fern hat uns sehr engagiert und informierend durch den Vormittag geleitet. Auch die Rückfahrt zum Hotel wurde komplikationslos organisiert. Alle Mitarbeiter sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Absolut zu empfehlen!!!
